Appearing as a panellist on Loose Women today, Shirley opened up about getting married at 17 years old.

During a discussion on revenge cheating, Shirley said: "I left my first husband when I was 23 for my second husband.
"During my time with him there was infidelity there and I just put it down to the fact I probably deserved it and it was karma.
